Check-Raise Pressure from Andrei
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Four players created a pot of 2,000 and saw a flop of 
. Romania's Acatincai Andrei, who was in the small blind, checked, and Artem Metalidi took the opportunity to bet 1,150 from the big blind. Alex Bilokur called from middle position, the cutoff did the same, and then Andrei woke up with a check-raise to 3,600.
Metalidi thought long and hard before making the call, Bilokur folded, and the cutoff called the additional 2,450. When the dealer burned and turned the 
, Andrei quickly bet a hefty 6,500, which was enough to get the job done as both his opponents tossed their cards to the muck.
